Pair of Staffordshire pottery cats, early 19th century

A pair of early Victorian pottery figurines of cats, white with large black spots, sitting on fancy fringed red cushions and wearing distinguished golden bows as collars. And in perfect feline fashion, they don't look particularly pleased to see you.

Each 18 cm high

Some fading to the added glaze.

Fabric swatch: Warner House, Bengal in Red.
